Hey,
here is a patch which will probably work for you (not tested):

Hello everyone, I’m running ECL + EQL 16.1.3, Mac OS High Sierra
I can produce a binary with ECL, but I have an issue, when I try to run it on anybody’s computer: I get the following:
Condition of type: FILE-ERROR Filesystem error with pathname “SYS:help.doc”. Either
- the file does not exist, or
- we are not allowed to access the file, or
- the pathname points to a broken symbolic link.
No restarts available.
Top level in: #<process TOP-LEVEL>.
I’ve determined that the cause of this error is a file missing at: /usr/local/lib/ecl-16.1.3/help.doc
I’ve been able to get binary files to work on other people’s machines by copying the help.doc file to the appropriate dir. Unfortunately this is not a practical solution for distribution.
Is there any way to tell ECL to not attempt to load this file? Any patch I can apply to the source? Thanks,
